Transgender Pedophile Sentenced to Life for Raping Inmates in Women’s Prison

Convicted child abuser jailed in woman's prison after claiming to be trans

Stephen Terence Wood claimed he was transgender was he was jailed for sexually abusing children

A convicted pedophile, who claimed he was transgender when he was jailed for previous crimes, has been sentenced to life in prison for raping two of his fellow inmates after he was sent to a women's prison.

52-year-old Stephen Terence Wood was jailed in the UK in 2001 for raping two boys, aged 9 and 12-years-old.

After being released from prison in 2003, he drugged and raped a pregnant woman - who happened to be the wife of his friend - but managed to escape prosecution.

Terence, who now calls himself "Karen White," sent to New Hall prison in Wakefield, West Yorkshire, on remand last September after being arrested on suspicion of repeatedly stabbing a neighbor.

He was sent to the women's prison after claiming he was transgender and raped the female prisoners during September and October.

As the judge issued the life sentence, White was called a “predatory and controlling” rapist.
